Hello Zvika,

the kmod package you selected only provides command line utilities like
modinfo when "kmod utilities" is also selected.

There are two options to get them:

1. do not select kmod package and use the utilities conveniently
provided by busybox. You should already have insmod, lsmod, modprobe
and rmmod available if you are using the default busybox configuration.
Just run make busybox-menuconfig and select modinfo from the "Linux
Module Utilities" menu

2. if you really need modinfo from the kmod package, first select "Show
packages that are also provided by busybox" from "Target packages". 
Then you should see the new option "kmod utilities" in the "Target
packages -> System tools" submenu

Best regards,
Mattia
